Choose the Right Lift for Your Ride
Three Sizes. One Mission: Progress Made Easy.
The Navigator Foil Series is all about unlocking your potential – whether you’re chasing smooth freeride sessions, expanding your light wind range, or just getting into the game. With three carefully tuned front wings, you can match your foil to your weight, wind conditions, and riding goals.
Navigator 1300
This mid-aspect wing delivers the sweet spot between lift and manoeuvrability, ideal for intermediates looking for a more responsive feel. It’s your go-to for freeride performance across a range of conditions.
Navigator 1600
With increased surface area and glide, the 1600 keeps the same efficient shape while adding more support. Perfect for heavier riders or lighter wind conditions, it balances control with that extra bit of lift when you need it most.
Navigator 2000
Maximum early lift and low-speed stability make the 2000 the most forgiving option in the range. Its low-aspect profile is ideal for learning, cruising, or riders who value an ultra-smooth, relaxed flight.
Whichever model you choose, every Navigator shares the same DNA:
Early takeoff. Smooth progression. Limitless fun.

NAVIGATOR FOIL FAQ
Which Navigator Foil model is best for beginners?
The Navigator 2000 offers the most stability and earliest lift, making it ideal for those just starting their foiling journey. Its low-aspect design provides maximum forgiveness during the learning process. If you're a slightly more confident beginner with some board sports experience, the Navigator 1600 offers a great balance of stability and performance.
How difficult is it to learn foiling with a Navigator Foil?
We've designed the Navigator series specifically to flatten the learning curve. The early lift characteristics, combined with the 75 cm mast length, create an ideal platform for developing your skills. Most riders find they can achieve their first sustained flights within a few sessions, and the stable nature of these foils makes the progression more enjoyable.
What board should I pair with my Navigator Foil?
For beginners, we recommend starting with a board volume of approximately 120-140% of your body weight in kilograms.
The Navigator Foil works excellently with our Unifiber foil boards, which feature reinforced mounting areas and balanced volume distribution designed specifically for foiling.
Can I use the Navigator for wing foiling, SUP foiling, and surf foiling?
Yes, the Navigator series is versatile enough for multiple disciplines. The early lift characteristics make it particularly well-suited for wing foiling and SUP foiling. For surf foiling, the Navigator 1300 offers the most responsive experience of the three models.
How does the Navigator compare to high-performance race foils?
The Navigator prioritizes stability, early lift, and forgiving handling over maximum speed and efficiency. Race foils typically have higher aspect ratios and thinner profiles that require more precise technique to control. The Navigator provides a much more accessible platform for learning and progressing, though it won't match the top-end speed of dedicated race equipment.
How should I care for my Navigator Foil?
Rinse thoroughly with fresh water after each session, paying special attention to all metal components and connection points. Allow to fully dry before storage. Periodically check all screws for tightness and apply marine-grade anti-corrosion spray to metal components if storing for extended periods.
